I guess the problem is that I dont understand what : SSH to tunnel
http sessions means.  Any help would be much appreciated!

The KB instructions referenced below are only for using SSH to tunnel
http sessions.  

To enable SSL for web administration on the RaQ 3, enable SSL and add a
certificate for the 'home' site.  i.e. the administrative web server
uses the main site (home) certificate.
